<p>The term <em>long ashes</em> is sometimes used in the cigar world when greeting or <strong>saying goodbye</strong> to a fellow cigar smoker.

<p>Cigars that have been around for a while are usually neglected by today's bloggers who like to review newly released cigars. However, a cigar does not have to be brand new to be new to you, if you have never smoked it before.

<p>San Lotano Maduro cigars from A.J. Fernandez have a taste that might almost &#160;make you think that you're smoking a dark chocolate candy bar, and these cigars are <em>not</em> artificially flavored. This stick has been the most enjoyable cigar that I have smoked so far this year.

<p>Since the title of each of the 1,000+ Guides on About.com&#160;has recently been&#160;changed by the company to "Expert",&#160;it seemed like a good time to take a closer look at&#160;some of the different&#160;terms or titles that&#160; can be used to&#160;refer to&#160;a Cigar Expert. <a href="http://clk.about.com/?zi=1/1hc&#038;zu=http://cigars.about.com/od/cultureofcigars/fl/Cigar-Experts.htm">See what other words there are to call a cigar expert</a>.</p>http://cigars.about.com/b/2014/02/11/cigar-experts.htmTue, 11 Feb 2014 07:56:46 +00002014-02-11T07:56:46ZReview of Pinolero Figurado Cigarhttp://cigars.about.com/b/2014/02/05/review-of-pinolero-figurado-cigar.htm
<p>Pinolero is a Nicaraguan puro from A.J. Fernandez that received an impressive 91 rating in the current issue of <em>Cigar Aficionado</em>. The magazine rated the Churchill size, but I decided to review the Figurado, which sells at the same price.
